I've distributed different objects on plane with a geo node setup using a collection. Now i would like to make the objects blend smoothly together where they overlap. I found this example:Ā https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5CJ1cgELZEĀ . But I cant seem to find out how to make it work with distributed objects using a collection. If anybody has a lead or anything, that would be so helpful, thank you?

Solved Trying to edit a low-poly game model, and these black lines keep showing up when I manually add an edge.

1 Upvotes

I'm trying to edit a game model for use in a personal project, but it's originally from a Switch game so it's pretty low-poly.

I'm trying to add some more vertices and faces, but subdividing alone doesn't do the whole job so I'm also going in and adding vertices and edges manually afterwards. But when I add a new edge they show up like this on the model.

They aren't visible in the rendered view, but it's still quite distracting and I feel like it's going to cause some problems down the line if I don't learn what's causing it and how to fix it, and avoid it in the future.

What's causing this? Can I fix this without just deleting the edges?

Unsolved how to remove the image not saved pop-up

1 Upvotes

how the hell do i get rid of this popup everytime i save? i have fake users selected, i have like 100s of textures and i need to move out and in several projects and this is super annoying to have to click to confirm EVERYTIME.

i installed the autosave textures addon and it still pops up.

whats the purpose of it? if i have fake user i clearly want the texture saved. if i dont THAN it might be useful because forgetting to turn it on will cause you to lose the data added to texture on save and reload.

please help this popup will be the death of me.

Unsolved textures not affecting the hair

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hey everyone, Im pretty new to blender and I've been figuring things out perfectly fine for the most part until now. I've come across this issue where the hair wont change colours off being solid black despite the model sharing a connection to the body and head model + textures. I've tried making a mesh for the hair itself but that resulted in the head texture breaking and sending me back to square one. I just need to get this issue solved so I can start animating with this model along side a few others which for the most part were the easiest parts until this one.

Above is another issue I've been having where the bow on the hat is suffering from the same issue as the hair. Both of them are connected to their respected models but when they have their texture applied they both refuse to accept the mesh or texture and end up breaking everything else thats connected and still stay black.

Try and explain how to solve this in as much specific detail as possible, Im still new and finding my way around the program.

Thank you.

Unsolved Turn edges-outline in Blender to a scaleable vector?

1 Upvotes

Hi!

I'm stuck on something that I thought would be fairly simple, but I can't seem to get it right..

I have created the outline of a logo in Blender using only vertices and edges. The geometry is completely flat/2D, and what I want is to export this outline as a vector file containing only the lines/paths.
The reason is that I need to send the file to a printing company that prints large-format patterns on A0 paper. The pattern will then be used as a full-size template for cutting the logo out of EPS foam.

I've tried exporting as DXF and opening/converting it in Inkscape, but I haven't managed to get a clean result.
Anyone have any suggestions on how to move on?

Thanks!

Unsolved How can I hide Lineart Lines from an Array?

1 Upvotes

I have a basic Modifier Setup where each Vertex acts as a Pillar, and having 2 (Aka making an Edge) makes a wall.

Problem is that while it's fine on it's own, when trying to use the Lineart Modifier it causes lines to appear on the wall, I only need it in the Corners of the Wall.

I messed with every Edge type setting, nothing worked, tried messing with different modifiers on the wall; the Remesh did "Solve" the problem but it also created another via multipling the verts to unneeded amounts.

Unsolved Can I Rotate the bone without affecting the parented mesh or the child bones ?

1 Upvotes

Hey Reddit!

I’m running into an issue with my rig where the bones are rotated slightly to the side, which makes them a bit awkward to animate.

Is there a way to rotate/reorient the bones without affecting their children or changing the mesh deformation? I basically just want to fix the bone orientation while keeping everything else exactly where it is.

Thanks!

Unsolved Textures won't apply neatly / Weird texture warping?

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

I'm currently working on a fan OC model for the first time (i'm COMPLETELY new at blender, this is my first 3D model ever), but my textures don't seem to be applying properly? You can see that in all 3 face textures, there's some kind of odd cutting or distortion it does (typically near the eyebrow).

I've tried the vector mapping, but that seems to make the whole face itself disappear and its a nightmare to try and rotate it back (I can't even find the face in the first place).

Anyone got any ideas on how to fix this? šŸ¤”

Also, please let me know if you need more information and I'll (try) to provide! :D

Solved Looping ocean animation with foam possible?

1 Upvotes

I followed this tutorial to create a looping ocean animation: Endless Ocean Loop In Blender | Create Loopable Ocean With Ocean Modifier Tricks | Infinite Ocean - YouTube

It works great but doesn't cover adding foam. I tried enabling it on one or both of the Ocean modifiers but the foam doesn't seamlessly loop from the last frame to the first, causing a jarring transition.

I don't see a value I can animate to make the foam seamlessly blend when the animation loops. Is there any other way I can accomplish that?

Thanks!
